Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword. It is a business practice that impacts your business as well as the world at large.
NOCO’s business sustainability services can help you improve your business’ sustainability practices that will help not only the environment, but your bottom line and attractiveness to potential investors.

To help you get started, we’ve put together some information about sustainability so you can understand how it benefits your business, employees, and community.
What is business sustainability?
Sustainability is a principle in which we strive to meet the current needs of society without compromising the ability of future generations to do so. Companies can uphold this value by reducing or eliminating their use of limited resources, and/or shifting their focus towards eco-friendly alternatives that have a smaller environmental impact.
Some examples of sustainability include:
- Improving energy efficiency at offices and other facilities
- Reducing all kinds of waste, including paper and food
- Optimizing supply chains to minimize environmental impact
- Using renewable energy resources wherever possible
- Leveraging technology to improve efficiency in work and streamlining services
Increasingly, investors are turning to Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) metrics as a way of gauging an organization’s ethical standing and sustainability efforts. Investors not only assess a company’s financial performance, but they also take into account elements such as its carbon footprint, water consumption, commitment to community development, and diversity among the board members.
